Tyler SEGUIN is one of the most gifted strikers in the world. If he were in “Tampa” or “Chicago”, where the first trusted irowiki, not a workaholic, you might be able to score a hundred points a season. Dallas Ken Hitchcock this season returned to Segina on the position of the Central striker and began to mold it into bilateral forward. That for all their attacking talents unexpectedly apt pupil, stepping on the throat of his own song.

Who would have thought about it in the beginning of his career, when he made his debut for Boston. In those days of how to look at private gate, canadian, recalled, except that in training. Now it is much more time passes in his area to help the defenders. It’s good that the partners link in it, tend to overlook Jamie Benn and Alexander Radulov. They can not only throw a washer in another’s zone and go after it headlong. Both pas and may be given such that upload and episode solve alone due to the high degree of skill.

In overtime, SEGUIN during a delayed penalty in the format of “4 on 3” had the opportunity to show off himself and threw the puck luxury: traveled two players of “Boston” and forced goalkeeper Anton Hudobina ahead of time put guards on the ice, nervous.

Dallas has surprised the entire NHL that have left in stock, 34-year-old veteran Jason Spezza. His salary is $ 7.5 million. The player of such level sent to the press box in exceptional cases. Even last season, Spezza scored 50 points in 68 games. A very good performance. However, with the advent of Hitchcock professing boring to outrageous style with an emphasis on defense, the veteran began to pass. It is seen that such hockey is not for him. Since the beginning of the season he scored pathetic for a player of his level on 16 points. That it will continue until there is clarity. General Manager of “stars” Jim nill was quick to reassure the public. According to him, in the next match Spezza will play exactly.

Left without a frontline second level, guests early in the match still looked great. Hudobina only for the first three minutes, had six times to hit the puck. If not for his strong action, then the account would be opened before the first break. In the future, he has earned at least “good”, continuing to help out the team in difficult situations. Field players “Boston” woke up immediately. Due to the national holiday in memory of Martin Luther king in the US had the day off, and the match started at one o’clock local time.

At some point, “Bruins” was lost on throws more than 10 times. But then the team strong took over, staging a bombing gates brown Lehtonen. This onslaught was wasted, despite 14 shots in a row. “Dallas” in the counterattack opened the scoring, and then Radulov figured out batted him the puck…

The defender is a veteran “Boston” zdeno Hara over the years, it rarely helps the attack. Age affects the rate has fallen, so there is no fat in 40 years we must first think about the performance of duties. However, if the huge Slovak seems to be the case, the goalkeepers opponent start to tremble. Shot from the soul reminded of a vintage hare a decade ago, when he was a dominant defender on both ends of the floor. Goalie Lehtonen was powerless.

After due to injury a couple of weeks off the first issue of “Colorado” Semyon Varlamov, cause “Avalanches” – contrary to expectations – went up the hill. Great game team captain Nate MacKinnon is one of the major reasons for this success. But is not the most important. Very good goalkeeper Jonathan Bernier. The canadian emerged victorious in their last six games.

“Colorado” in the meeting with the “Anaheim” has won the seventh match in a row. The merit of this shot is obvious. Why is it only “saves”, sostavlyayuschaya to remember a television program of a scientific nature childhood called “unbelievable”. Bernier rescued their partners in such a way that could only marvel at his skill and to remember how once he was selected in the first round. Huge advances it is not entirely justified, but now 29-year-old goalkeeper scored a fantastic form.
